Dtruthspeaker: Bla bla bla sheep you don't have any wool? Yes sir, yes sir, no bags full! None for the master, none for the dame, none for the little boy who sits in Nairaland! 
Bla bla blah Sheep!  If you calm down and allow the “power of reason” God bestowed on you to play its role(Romans 12:1)—you'll see the truth in all Maximus69 is saying. How dare you quote Revelation 21:8 that talks about the “lake of fire” and ignore the rest that says it culminates in a “second death” without a resurrection? Are you that desperate? Since you claim to know the Bible, can you please tell us where the first man Adam is presently? As in explain using scriptures this time. Your aim now is to see how to convince atheists to see the light in God's word rather than being a laughing stock and threatening them with your nonexistent and deprecated hellfire.  So much for you being a “truth speaker” .  |

Eagban: The Jesus I know is God (1 Timothy 3:16). Will Eagban ever put sentiment away and agree that the translators of KJV dubiously inserted “God” into 1Timothy 3:16? Please see the original Greek text in the picture below and tell us where you saw “God manifested in the flesh”. The one Jehovah's witnesses preach is just a prophet like Moses.. You'll just stay and be exposing yourself for nothing. What was Moses inspired to write at Deuteronomy 18:15? KJV Bible “The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken” Please who is this Prophet to come that is like Moses? The Bible itself answers this to be Jesus Christ. Please see Luke 7:16, John 1:45, 6:14, 7:40 and confirm for yourself. Doesn't this now show that JW's are right about who Jesus truly is? What makes you think I leave the Original for your own? It is only Jehovah God that draws people to the truth—John 6:44, 1Corinthians 3:6 We just do our own part by teaching people the truth about Jehovah God and his Son whom he sent, Jesus Christ  — Matthew 28:19,20; John 17:3

In the beginning the Word already existed; the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1 GNB https://bible.com/bible/296/jhn.1.1.GNB

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1 ASV https://bible.com/bible/12/jhn.1.1.ASV
In the beginning was the one who is called the Word. The Word was with God and was truly God. John 1:1 CEV https://bible.com/bible/392/jhn.1.1.CEV
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Yochanan (Jhn) 1:1 CJB https://bible.com/bible/1275/jhn.1.1.CJB

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/jhn.1.1.KJV. ..
And this is your own version of it :- In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god(NWT).
How come all these Bible societies see God in capital letters and your translation committee didn't see it..?
And for your information I do not dislike the Jehovah's witnesses, I only dislike the disregard for the Mighty God(Jesus) Isaiah 9:6.. Uncle/Aunty Eagban, if we're to talk about John 1:1—you're going to have to free your mind and leave all forms of sentiment out of this and it should be noted that it's one thing to consider a Bible translation and it's a TOTALLY different thing to consider the ORIGINAL SCRIPTURAL TEXT. Take a look at the picture below. We see two forms of Greek expressions of “God”. The first one “Theon” [God] is preceded by a Greek definite article “ton” which in English corresponds to “the” definite article. This first form is usually and always designated to the Supreme One, the Almighty God alone—Jehovah(Psalm 83:18) The second one however is “Theos” [god] occurs without a definite article indicating that this can be designated to others—unlike “Theon” that's assigned to One Person only—the true God Jehovah. Jesus(The Word/Spokesman of God/firstborn and only begotten Son of God) is the one bearing this “god” title in John 1:1 indicating that he also occupies a high position and is of divine nature but not the same as his Father, Jehovah (John 20:17, 1Corinthians 8:6) It's just like how the men of Israel during the time of the judges wielded power so as to be referred to as “gods”—Please compare Psalm 82:6 with John 10:34-35

Christianity Etc › The Bible Survived Attempts To Alter Its Message by DappaD(op): 3:52pm On Sep 06, 2020 |
THE THREAT : External threats such as decay and opposition have not destroyed the Bible. Yet, some copyists and translators have attempted to alter the Bible’s message. At times, they have tried to make the Bible conform to their doctrines rather than conform their doctrines to the Bible. Consider some examples: Place of worship : Between the fourth and second centuries B.C.E., the writers of the Samaritan Pentateuch inserted after Exodus 20:17 the words “in Aargaareezem. And there you shall build an altar.” The Samaritans thus hoped to make the Scriptures support their construction of a temple on “Aargaareezem,” or Mount Gerizim. Trinity doctrine : Less than 300 years after the Bible was completed, a Trinitarian writer added to 1 John 5:7 the words “in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” That statement did not appear in the original text. “From the sixth century onwards,” notes Bible scholar Bruce Metzger, those words were “found more and more frequently in manuscripts of the Old Latin and of the [Latin] Vulgate.” Divine name : Citing a Jewish superstition as their authority, many Bible translators decided to remove the divine name from the Scriptures. They replaced that name with titles such as “God” or “Lord,” expressions applied in the Bible not only to the Creator but also to men, objects of false worship, and even the Devil.—John 10:34, 35; 1 Corinthians 8:5, 6; 2 Corinthians 4:4. * HOW THE BIBLE SURVIVED : First, although some Bible copyists were careless or even deceitful, many others were highly skilled and meticulous. Between the sixth and tenth centuries C.E., the Masoretes copied the Hebrew Scriptures and produced what is known as the Masoretic text. They reportedly counted the words and the letters to verify that no mistakes crept in. Where they suspected errors in the master text they were using, they noted these in the margin. The Masoretes refused to tamper with the Bible text. “Interfering with it purposely,” wrote Professor Moshe Goshen-Gottstein, “would have been for them the worst crime possible.” Second, the sheer volume of manuscripts today actually helps Bible scholars to spot errors. For example, religious leaders taught for centuries that their Latin versions contained the authentic Bible text. Yet, at 1 John 5:7, they had inserted the spurious words referred to earlier in this article. The error even crept into the influential English King James Version! But when other manuscripts were discovered, what did they reveal? Bruce Metzger wrote: “The passage [at 1 John 5:7] is absent from the manuscripts of all ancient versions (Syriac, Coptic, Armenian, Ethiopic, Arabic, Slavonic), except the Latin.” As a result, revised editions of the King James Version and other Bibles have removed the erroneous phrase. Do older manuscripts prove that the Bible’s message has been preserved? When the Dead Sea Scrolls were found in 1947, scholars could at last compare the Hebrew Masoretic text to what appeared in Bible scrolls that had been written more than a thousand years earlier. A member of the editorial team of the Dead Sea Scrolls concluded that one scroll “provides irrefutable proof that the transmission of the biblical text through a period of more than one thousand years by the hands of Jewish copyists has been extremely faithful and careful.” The Chester Beatty Library in Dublin, Ireland, features a collection of papyri that represents nearly every book of the Christian Greek Scriptures, including manuscripts dating from the second century C.E.—only about 100 years after the Bible was completed. “Although the Papyri supply a wealth of new information on textual detail,” The Anchor Bible Dictionary observes, “they also demonstrate remarkable stability in the transmission history of the biblical text.” THE RESULT : Rather than corrupting the Bible text, the age and multitude of Bible manuscripts have actually improved it. “No other ancient book has anything like such early and plentiful testimony to its text,” wrote Sir Frederic Kenyon about the Christian Greek Scriptures, “and no unbiased scholar would deny that the text that has come down to us is substantially sound.” And regarding the Hebrew Scriptures, scholar William Henry Green stated: “It may be safely said that no other work of antiquity has been so accurately transmitted.” Source : www.jw.orgLink : https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-no4-2016-july/bible-changed-or-tampered/ |

Infact Jesus said his followers will be identified with this mark of LOVE existing today only amongst Jehovah's Witnesses (John 13:34,35) That's why you'll often hear people say “Tufia Jehovah's Witnesses love only themselves haba sef”And you yourself confirmed it in your preceding comments on another thread.

Christianity Etc › Re: The Story Of The Rich Man And Lazarus Is Not A Parable by DappaD: 8:12pm On Sep 05, 2020*. Modified: 3:18pm On Sep 06, 2020 |
Ken4Christ: The story of the Rich man and Lazarus is not a parable. This story was narrated by our Lord Jesus as recorded in Luke 16:19-31
19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
If you examine this passage, specific characters where mentioned; Lazarus, Abraham and Moses. I believe Jesus knows the name of the rich man but deliberately didn't mention it.
In parables, specific characters are not mentioned. I challenge anyone who thinks otherwise to mention any other parable where names where mentioned.
Our Lord Jesus said this by revelation just the way he told the woman of Samaria he met in the well her past.
Even if you insist it's a parable, it doesn't change the message. It still proves that lost souls will go to hell. You don't tell parables with things that are not real. All the parables of Jesus are illustrated with realities.
Besides, there are many other Scriptures that supports the existence of a burning hell. Scriptures must not be interpreted in isolation.
Please, give your life to Jesus if you haven't done so. Hell is real. You have been warned. The torment there is unbearable. God doesn't send people to hell. Your decision does. So when someone simply says “I accept Jesus as my personal Lord and savior”, the person is no longer bound to go to this mythical “hellfire” of yours?  Please can you show Biblical evidence of this Lazarus being a worshiper of God or a follower of Jesus that he merited going to heaven?  Since you churchgoers will say that the Abraham's bosom represents heaven and that the rich man is in hellfire If this was a true event that happened and Lazarus truly went to heaven, then Jesus was lying that before him NOBODY ELSE had ascended up to heaven—John 3:13. Churchgoers who have differing beliefs about this “hellfire” will often miscontrue the PARABLE OF THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS to fit their own useless doctrines. Take a look at your concluding statements, you so so so want people to burn forever in your mythical nonsense!  Something that had never come into God's heart at anytime—Jeremiah 7:31 I'll leave you with one question which should be easy to answer—using the Scriptures, that is. Can you tell me where Adam presently is right now?
Is he in this mythical “hellfire” ? Or somewhere else? Please do answer in earnest with Scriptures, thanks. |

Acts 10:10-16; 11:5-10
In the vision he saw, why did Peter call the animals that descended from heaven “UNCLEAN”?
Peter, before he became a apostle of Jesus Christ, he was a fisherman and a Jew—who practiced the Mosaic Law. The Law put restrictions on the food the Jews could consume—with some being unclean. (Leviticus 11:4, 13-20, Deuteronomy 14:19) Now even after some years had past since Christ's death, evidently in the year 36CE, approximately 3years after the death and resurrection of Christ, DIDN'T PETER KNOW THAT THE DEATH OF CHRIST MARKED THE END OF THE LAW?  (Matthew 5:17, Romans 10:4, Ephesians 2:15, Colossians 2:13,14) The answer is simple. The Jewish Christians had long practiced the Law from childbirth so they needed time to adjust and change their mentality/lifestyle and they were willing to do so. Just like Peter was ever ready to receive correction and readjustment, like how the voice from heaven corrected him. So you cannot hold Peter accountable for what he believed prior to when he knew Christ! Since all that's important is humility to make changes. Now that's what is known as PROGRESSIVE LEARNING .  |

Christianity Etc › Re: How Do We Know God Is A Male by DappaD: 12:35pm On Sep 02, 2020 |
Maximus69: OK!
So let's reason together from the scriptures! Isaiah 1:18
According to the Bible God created the heavens and the earth {Genesis 1:1} he didn't provide any information about the heavens because we don't need to know about what we can't see so God continued with the information regarding what is visible to our eyes (our planet home earth) {Genesis 1:2-31} notice that as from verse two of Genesis 1, all the info is about the earth. So how do we now know that God is male? Well let's proceed to Genesis chapter 2!
God now explained in details how humans began having problems. First he made it clear that when he said "let us make Man in our own image" he didn't create instantly the female alongside the male! {Genesis 2:18-25} So it has taken some time before God created the female, after God has given Adam the life saving info regarding the forbidden fruit {Genesis 2:7} and after Adam has named all other living creatures {Genesis 2:19} therefore everything has been established before God later brought the woman out of the man, this is the first evidence that God and all other heavenly beings are Masculine in nature not feminine!
Secondly another event helped us to ascertain the Masculine nature of God. Remember that God didn't give us any info regarding the heavens and those living there from the beginning, so when angels came down from heaven, put on human bodies and started having sex with female humans {Genesis 6:1-4} it is evident that their masculine nature made them feel the need to enjoy what Adam and his sons are enjoying with their females (SEX) so they abandoned their assignment and came down for that purpose!
Again when Job was complaining bitterly about his condition, God asked him "do you know how many SONS i have in heaven?" {Job 38:7} of course God wanted Job to know that some of his mighty spirit sons have become rebels so all the calamities that befell Job came through those rebellious angels! 2Peter 2:4; Jude 6
Lastly when Apostle Paul was addressing the Christians in Corinth he made it clear to them that God's spirit sons don't relate with female humans the same way they do with males {1Corinthians 11:10} of course those angels look at female humans as lesser creatures so during worship they don't welcome females leading in sacred services, that's why anytime their is no baptized male around any female who wants to take up the responsibility to lead in worship must have her head covered {1Corinthians 11:5} women must cover their heads as a sign of respect to show they're not supposed to take the lead in worship because Eve came from Adam! 1Corinthians 11:8-9 compare with 1Timothy 2:12
All God's creations both heaven and on earth will never forget that the disorder in the world today began after the birth of female human (Eve)! 1Corinthians 33-35
God bless you!  Well said, brother Maximus69. But allow me to kindly suggest you read up the Awake! issue of October 2008 for more light on this.  |

TheBedWench: No one said anyone owns morality. Righteousness is belief in the true and living God. I said other cultures have had moral heroes. You have moral people among Ifa practitioners who wear all white and worship Olodumare as the highest purity in their lives. You are talking to someone who respects and slightly knows Yoruba culture, and I don't know it all. It's simply too vast and ancient to know all of it. Yet I have the gist of it. TheBedWench, I do not care about what you believe in and what you do not. My question is: Why did you quote 1Corinthians 6:9-10 as response to Maximus69's questions and still claim Paul never existed? |

TheBedWench: Yes I feel comfortable quoting even your lies. No no no. Maximus69 asked you: So what happens to people from all other nations who accepted pure worship and do God's will? Will they be welcomed into his kingdom? And you replied by quoting 1Corinthians 6:9-10 as response to his question? So ‘people from all other nations’ are the unrighteous? |
